[PATCH 35/40] autonuma: boost khugepaged scanning rate

From: Andrea Arcangeli <hidden>
Date: 2012-06-28 12:58:30
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: memory management, memory management - thp (transparent huge page), the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand, Lorenzo Stoakes, Linus Torvalds

Until THP native migration is implemented it's safer to boost
khugepaged scanning rate because all memory migration are splitting
the hugepages. So the regular rate of scanning becomes too low when
lots of memory is migrated.
